Horoscopes by Holiday


Happy birthday (Dec. 9): Your adventurous spirit leads you to gain skills. You'll take on new projects, not because you know how to do the work but because you don't. Your expertise in one area will spread to another and your power will grow.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): You create your life, but not completely. You always have creative partners. Even when you're finally in charge, you're still in a co-creation with life itself. Affect what you can. If it doesn't yield to you, it's not yours to control.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): When you buy into your future, you accept that things could go either way; victory and defeat are two sides of the same coin. However, the fates favor you in today's toss.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21): You can tap into an intensity when you need to. Though you usually like to keep things light, brief instances of passion make life sparkle with excitement.

CANCER (June 22-July 22): It's not the amount of stress in your life, but how you deal with it that matters. You're finding new ways all the time. You'll continue to hone your game until you can deftly handle the very things that once caused you anxiety.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You know almost everything about something and something about almost everything. Given your level of sophistication you may wonder if it's possible to have a day filled with carefree innocence. It is and you will.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You may not be able to articulate what's on your heart, but if you write it out, you'll come to an interesting conclusion.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Extend an invitation — the more specific the better. Whether or not your invite is accepted will have more to do with convenience and fit than anything else, so geographic desirability will earn points.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): It feels nice to be understood, but if you're more often misunderstood today, don't worry — it's actually making you better.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You're not inclined to sell people on things they don't need or want, even if it would be good for you, your boss or your company. Honesty may cost you a short-term sale, but it will win you a long-term fan and future customer.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You've known relationships that were comfortable from the get-go and never got less-so. Also, some relationships have always been and will always be difficult. Accept the work as a given feature of the relationship and it's easier to take.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You'll be struck by a realization: What you're doing is not what you set out to do. False starts, strange turns and the like are all part of the process. Be patient with yourself as you find your way.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Because you're so creative, your mind will go in multiple directions, some more helpful than others. You can rein in your thoughts though, kindly picking and choosing the most supportive among them to put on repeat.

CLASH OF VENUS AND JUPITER

Some couples take pride in never disagreeing. “We never argue or fight,” they say, though couples therapists suggest that a lack of conflict doesn’t always indicate relationship health. Power shifts come with a change of Venus and a clash with Jupiter too. Keep in mind you can disagree with what a person is saying without disagreeing with the person saying it.
